You are claiming that the protons are going around the ≈ 27 km ring

The real value is ≈ 11.25 thousand times per second.

In that case you had me!

It appears "Dr." Hachel stumbled across the physics concept of "rapidity". Rapidity is related to speed but isn't a speed. It is related to speed by r = arctanh(v/c) where v is the velocity. The rapidity of light is infinity. AFAIK, rapidity is used sometimes to simplify the math. For example, rapidities of two objects in one dimensional motion can be just added but velocities need the Einstein velocity addition formula.
It is not even that, it is worse, far worse.
